Journalist Yahya Bostan: The Syrian PKK cannot integrate into Damascus by demanding autonomy. If the Syrian PKK had complied with the March 10 agreement, it would be in a much stronger position. Either they will lay down their arms and comply with the fourteen-point agreement, or they will disappear... show more

Journalist Yahya Bostan: The Syrian PKK used civilians as human shields. Throughout the operation, the Damascus administration acted with the seriousness of a state. The Damascus administration did not enter Hasakah and Ayn al-Arab in order to prevent harm to civilians. While restoring Syria’s territorial integrity, it is also trying not to create resentment in the hearts of the Kurdish population. 🔗

The SDF/YPG should thank their lucky stars for Al Sharaa. Once a jihadi, now a statesman, he’s done everything possible to solve the PKK problem peacefully- even blocking Turkish operations against them. But history matters. The PYD was born in 2003 as the PKK’s Syrian branch, openly backed by Assad to manipulate Kurdish grievances. Damascus armed them, trained them, and let them operate freely. Only a third of the PKK fighters back then were Syrian. By 2012, PKK fronts like TEV-DEM controlled Syrian Kurdistan. The U.S. then rebranded them as the “SDF” to hide their terrorist ties. Five months after the March deal, Damascus is losing patience. The SDF must integrate into the Syrian state- no more victim games, no more double-dealing. Damascus has already offered more than enough. Push your luck, and the next “negotiation” will be fought on the battlefield.

And of course the fucking PKK had to shit all over everything again. People waited years to finally come home - years of exile, loss, and hoping - and what do these PKK cadres do the second they get the chance? They desecrate the Syrian flag, hoist their own PKK rags, and turn the place into chaos and disorder. The PKK project in Syria is dead. Assad is gone. Deal with it!

If Syrian free women are trained, armed, and supported, they will change the equation with the jihadists. The Kurds and Yazidis train their women. Watch the movie "sœurs d'armes." (Sisters in arms)

This maybe the first victory of Ahmad al-Shara against Netanyahu. Syrian General Security personnel entered Jaramah following an agreement with the Druze community. The security personnel, in a clever PR stunt, raised the Druze flag. Previously, Netanyahu stated that they will protect the Druze in Jaramah against Damascus.

With their sacrifices, they spared the city a humanitarian catastrophe… The Syrian Arab Army supports state institutions in assisting displaced residents from the Al-Ashrafieh and Sheikh Maqsoud neighborhoods in Aleppo. #Syria #Aleppo #PKK #SDF

Israel accepted and has complied with the U.S. plan. A real path forward is possible. But Hamas repeatedly violates the ceasefire, holding Gaza and the region hostage to its jihadist agenda. They also still hold the abducted bodies of Dror Or, Ran Gvili & Sudthisak Rinthalak, denying them the dignity of a burial. Hamas must comply with the agreement. Hamas must lay down its arms and go. Gaza must demilitarize so a real future can be crafted.

Some history: The Democratic Union Party (PYD), founded in 2003 as the Syrian arm of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), emerged in defiance of Ba’athist laws prohibiting political parties. Syrian intelligence, perceiving the PYD as a thinly veiled extension of the PKK under local leadership, not only tolerated but actively bolstered its operations. This tacit support aligned with the Assad regime’s strategic interests. In a 2015 interview, Bashar al-Assad openly acknowledged arming the PYD, declaring: “The Kurds are fighting alongside the Syrian army… We sent them armaments because they are Syrian citizens, and they want to fight terrorism.” This statement belies a complex history of manipulation. The PKK’s roots in Syria run deep, cultivated by a regime that simultaneously oppressed its Kurdish population while channeling their grievances into a controllable outlet. By funneling Kurdish recruits into the PKK, Damascus aimed to stifle local nationalist aspirations. Estimates suggest that as many as 10,000 Syrian Kurds swelled the PKK’s ranks over the decades. The Assad government further enabled the group’s activities, granting it operational freedom—including offices in Damascus and training camps in Lebanon’s Beqaa Valley, an area under Syrian hegemony. According to the Washington Institute, over one-third of PKK fighters hail from Syria, underscoring the group’s entrenched presence. In 2012, the PKK tightened its grip on Syrian Kurdistan, establishing the People’s Council of Western Kurdistan and the Movement for a Democratic Society (TEV-DEM). These entities, touted as grassroots governance structures, function as little more than PYD fronts—cogs in a calculated machine designed to obscure the PKK’s overarching control. The facade of autonomy serves a broader agenda: to entrench PKK dominance under the guise of local empowerment. Even U.S. policymakers concede the blurred lines between the PYD, its armed wing the People’s Protection Units (YPG), and the PKK. The distinction, they admit, is largely semantic. Yet, wary of the political fallout from openly backing a group tied to the PKK—designated a terrorist organization by the U.S. and NATO—the Pentagon engineered a rebrand. Enter the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), a coalition unveiled in 2015 that conveniently cloaks the PKK’s identity beneath a veneer of inclusivity. This sleight of hand, critics argue, is a deliberate deception to sanitize an unpalatable alliance.

I’ve always drawn a clear line between the PKK and the Kurdish people. Equating all Kurds with one of the most brutal terrorist movements on the planet is Kurdophobic! That position has become harder to defend now that Kurdish leaders like Talabani and Barzani openly support and empower the PKK. Yesterday, millions of Kurds across Europe demonstrated in support of the PKK in Syria- effectively telling the world: “We are all PKK.” That raises uncomfortable questions. If the PKK is so beloved, why did they come to Europe? The PKK has controlled Syrian Kurdish areas since 2011, and there has been no large-scale fighting there since 2015. For over a decade, supporters had the option to live under the movement they now glorify. So to every Syrian Kurd who joined these protests in Europe: what exactly did you flee? Not Assad. Not the PKK. The reality is this: there are now more PKK supporters living in Western societies than in Kurdish areas in the Middle East- and that will create serious, long-term consequences for Europe!

Zhirinovsky, the late Russian politician who could see the future: "They will find bypass maneuvers and will crush the Syrian regime, and Turkey will interfere. And by the summer, the war against Iran will be ready..." "This clash will continue in order to solve the main economic problem: saving the American economy. Or, if it is no longer possible to save it, to at some point ditch the dollar. With the ditching of the dollar, the blow will not perceived acutely by the citizens of the planet. Because they will be shown the Middle East covered in blood."

Syrian President answering whether he wants to normalize with Israel: Since our arrival in Damascus, Israel has acted against Syria, bombing locations, carrying out incursions into Syrian territory, and violating the 1974 Disengagement Agreement. We applied the same policy we are discussing: we tried dialogue through indirect negotiations and then direct negotiations, reaching good points, but the Israelis changed their position at the last minute.
